Horseshoe Indianapolis Race 4 - Race 4 - Claiming
NURSEKRINGLEDANCES (5) has been out of the placings in two runs since a break, the latest when fourth, beaten 7 lengths, over 1308m at Turfway Park (Synthetic) after she travelled towards the rear of the field. Will strip fitter and is all set to find winning form. EYE SHADOW (1) resumes in a similar race to her last run five months ago when fourth, beaten 4 lengths. Has found a suitable race. DAN'S CANDI GIRL (3) went fast early over 1207m at Turfway Park (Synthetic) when resuming last time and defied all challengers to score by 7 lengths. Meeting a deeper field this time but she is up to the challenge. SENSIBLE CHOICE (6) returns from a layoff of four months. Worth noting she filled a minor placing when returning from a spell last time in work over 1609m at Turfway Park. Looks a strong top-three prospect.

Third-up today. Resumes off a 54 day letup. Resuming second last of 10 at Turfway Park on January 1 over 1207m, 11 len behind Sassy And Bold carrying 55kg at $69.87. Second-up ran last of 8 at Turfway Park on February 19 over 1609m, 29 len behind Rapido Rosa with 56.5kg at $54.08. Doesn't look good enough to threaten the top few.

Last start ran last in a small field at Turfway Park on March 18 over 1308m, 15 len behind Midnight Mary carrying 56kg at $10.94. The start before that eased back early on 4th of 8 at Turfway Park on February 25 over 1207m, 5.5 len behind Miss Peabody with 56kg at $15.91. Will need plenty of improvement to feature.
